In form striker Daniel Sturridge is likely to be fit again to face the Swans after being forced to sit out of both England games last week with a thigh injury. Meanwhile, new signings Mamadou Sakho and Victor Moses will be expected to be involved for the first time since joining up late in the transfer window.

However, first choice right back Glenn Johnson is set to miss out for the next four to five weeks with an ankle injury, so young Andre Wisdom is likely to provide cover.

On the other side, Swansea boss Michael Laudrup has an almost fully fit squad to choose from.

Full-back Neil Taylor is the only definite absentee as the Wales international remains sidelined with a thigh injury.

Deadline-day signing Alvaro Vazquez could be given the chance to make his Swansea debut up front, whilst midfielder Jonjo Shelvey has overcome the thigh problem of his own that kept him out of England Under-21 action.

Liverpool are one victory short of 400 in the Premier League and will be hoping to wrap it up in south Wales.
